Growing Resilient: LJCDS Helps Lead the Way in Early Mental Health Education

At La Jolla Country Day School, we believe helping children grow means equipping them with the skills to understand themselves, care for others, and navigate life with resilience. We are proud to partner with UC San Diego’s Shift Towards Hope to bring age-appropriate mental health education to our Lower School students, helping lead the way in a conversation that matters deeply for children, families, and schools.

As highlighted in this recent UCSD Guardian story, more than 320 Lower School students participated in a mental health learning experience centered on emotional awareness, coping skills, and compassion.
